I first read the story and wondered to myself if the murdered was an illegal alien, one of many, in New Orleans doing construction work that "many Americans would like to be doing instead!"

So I did a little Googl'ing and found this entry:

The tv news is reporting that he is a Mexican national and they can't find him. Duh!! This woman worked with my niece at the realty that is handling the sale of my folks' house. I hope they find this fker and put his ass to death.

Suspect named, SUV seized in Lafreniere Park killing

By Michelle Hunter
East Jefferson bureau

An arrest warrant was obtained today for a suspect in the beating death of a woman who was abducted while exercising in Lafreniere Park.

Jefferson Parish sherff's deputies said they are seeking Edmundo Cerda-Anima, 25, on a first-degree murder charge in the killing of Sandra Adams, 51, of Metairie. They said they developed Cerda-Anima as a suspect with help from the Wichita, Kan., Police Department, although the connection was not immediate clear.

The announcement came after deputies impounded a white Ford Expedition similar to the getaway vehicle that they were seeking in Adams' killing.

Deputies seized the vehicle Tuesday evening at an apartment building in the 500 block of Eisenhower Avenue, about a mile south of the Metairie park, a resident of the building said today. The resident, Karen Brown, said the vehicle had been driven by four construction workers who moved into the building three to four months ago.

It could not be determined whether deputies detained the four men. The Sheriff's Office planned a news conference this afternoon.

The park itself, a 155-acre crime scene on Tuesday, reopened to the public today with plans for entry restrictions after dark and talk of installing surveillance cameras.

Officials said all but one vehicular and pedestrian entrance will be closed at 7:30 p.m., 2-1/2 hours earlier than normal. The exception is the Downs Boulevard entrance just south of Veterans Memorial Boulevard, which will remain open until 10 p.m. Jefferson Parish officials are considering installing surveillance cameras at that entrance to monitor nighttime traffic.

The park reopened about 24 hours after Adams was found dead a half-mile away. Adams had entered the park Monday night with her son and one of his friends. The men went jogging, planning to meet up with her later for a ride home.

But they didn’t see her again until Tuesday at 6:30 a.m., after Adams’ battered body was found naked and face down in a gravel lot at David and Lynette drives, the ground around her head saturated with blood.

Preliminary autopsy work suggests Adams, 51, was beaten to death.

A Mexican National? They mean an illegal alien, right? I'm so sick and tired of all the labels given to illegal aliens!

I hope the employer who owns the construction company this guy works for is prosecuted, too.

Sex abuse cited in Lafreniere Park killing

By Michelle Hunter
East Jefferson bureau

The person who abducted Sandra Adams from Lafreniere Park and killed her also "sexually abused" her, authorities said this afternoon.

While not specifying rape or some other form of molestation, Jefferson Parish sheriff's deputies made the abuse disclosure at a news conference where they identified their suspect: Edmundo Cerda-Anima, 25, a Mexican national and construction worker who moved a few months ago into an apartment complex about a mile south of Lafreniere Park.

It was at that building, in the 500 block of Eisenhower Avenue, that deputies seized what they think is the getaway vehicle used by Adams' killer.

Deputies said they think Cerda-Anima has left the area. They have obtained a warrant to book him with first-degree murder.

They said they do not know his U.S. immigration status.

Cerda-Anima is one of two people registered in Kansas as owners of the white Ford Expedition that deputies seized Tuesday evening. Karen Brown, a resident of the apartment building, said the vehicle had been driven by four construction workers.

The park itself, a 155-acre crime scene on Tuesday, reopened to the public today with plans for entry restrictions after dark and talk of installing surveillance cameras.

Officials said all but one vehicular and pedestrian entrance will be closed at 7:30 p.m., 2-1/2 hours earlier than normal. The exception is the Downs Boulevard entrance just south of Veterans Memorial Boulevard, which will remain open until 10 p.m. Jefferson Parish officials are considering installing surveillance cameras at that entrance to monitor nighttime traffic.

Similar security measures are being considered at LaSalle Park in Metairie, parish officials said.

Lafreniere Park reopened about 24 hours after Adams was found dead a half-mile away. Adams had entered the park Monday night with her son and one of his friends. The men went jogging, planning to meet up with her later for a ride home.

But they didn’t see her again until Tuesday at 6:30 a.m., after Adams’ battered body was found naked and face down in a gravel lot at David and Lynette drives, the ground around her head saturated with blood.
